Request: We would like to invite you to a meal at eight three one. Our café features fresh and delicious food made from scratch. Our innovative dishes, derived from local organic produce and meats, represent flavors from around the world and ’embrace[s] the unfocused.’ Our menu items change almost daily and suit many dietary needs.

We are located in a welcoming and charming community space on the campus of Oregon College of Art and Craft. In addition to our desire to share a passion for the art of food, we support the budding young artists on campus by showcasing their creations. We incorporate their ceramics, woodwork, photography, paintings, and graphic designs in our café and on our website. After enjoying a nice meal at eight three one, guests often visit the OCAC gallery that is literally just steps away.

We pride ourselves in being an independent, locally owned business and would love for you to find out for yourself why some have said we’re ‘Portland’s hidden gem.’ Please visit our website and Facebook page for more information about our restaurant, sample menu items, or to learn about the meaning behind our name. You are more than welcome to call or email us as well.
